I have traditionally used 10W-40 oil in the winter and 20W-50 for the
summer, with no problems. Checking the "notes on oil" segment on the
Volkswagen Bus Web Server, I read about the polymers used to thicken
the viscosity of the oil as the engine warms up, with some question as
to how these polymers hold up.

I have considered using a single-viscosity oil for the summer-
however, the only kind available here is SAE 30. The label on the oil
trumpets that it meets some three-letter-acronym oil quality standard,
and this claim doesn't appear on the multi-viscosity oil labels.

Is using SAE 30 oil a good idea? It is kinda thin, after all...
